We have an old deferred standard IM-XHTML -> We have a potential new approach XEP-0394 We have an old insufficient way to send media OOB -> We have a potential new sufficient approach SIMS (There will always be one more missing attr that could potentially be useful in a media transfer so i ignore the fact that Andrew wants to transfer seconds of a audio file, this is easily added) There is a "lets document the client praxis" kind of XEP-0393 which states some easy markdown syntax that may be encountered when using XMPP. I see this as a sort of document where developers can look up some easy markup stuff that some clients use. I dont see this as a serious approach to solve all markup needs of XMPP and i dont think it should be further extended. Yet people will probably use it because they know the syntax from other IM-Apps. But i dont see this XEP in opposition to any other XEP. I saw no arguments against 0394 and its approach, as i see it perfectly fits Andrews usecases. I dont see that there is a need to enclose each markup element into reference elements just for the sake of consistency. This would lead to some horrible inefficient syntax. I think developers can deal with the syntax that is described in 0394, they will not give up because they dont find a reference element. Whats missing from SIMS except some useful attrs?
